`cruising speed;”
`
`[283.2] “controlling instantaneous

`[291] “. . . wherein the at least one
`electric motor is sufficiently powerful
`to provide acceleration of said
`vehicle sufficient to conform to the
`Federal urban cycle driving fuel
`mileage test without use of torque
`from the engine to propel the
`vehicle.”
`Ex. 1851 (‘634 Patent) claim 291;
`See also claim 266
`
`Dr. Stein (Decl.):
`A POSA “would have understood that these
`tests [Suga] would assess whether the
`motor’s power performance was sufficient for
`a hybrid-vehicle during times that the vehicle
`is being propelled by the motor alone without
`the use of torque form the engine, i.e., within
`Severinsky ’970’s low speed mode.”

`Undisputed “Road load” claim construction: “the amount of instantaneous

`Institution Decision at 7-8
`
`Paice:
`
`Dr. Stein:
`“[T]he challenged claims do not
`require determining ‘the
`amount of instantaneous
`torque required to propel the
`vehicle’ based on rolling
`resistance or wind resistance,
`but not based on accelerator
`pedal, as argued by Mr.
`Hannemann.”

`PTAB: “[W]e are persuaded by Petitioner that ‘driveability torque

`therefore, Vittone discloses ‘road load.’ ”

`management’ of the thermal engine meets the limitation of the ‘rate of change of
`torque output of said engine is limited to a threshold value.’ ” IPR2015-00801

`PTAB: “Anderson’s ‘slow transients’ strategy would have suggested to a skilled
`artisan a hybrid control strategy that limits the engine’s output torque ‘to less than
`[its] inherent maximum rate of increase of output torque.’”

`
`‘785(G1, 4)
`
`PTAB: Paice’s argument that Anderson’s teachings are limited to series “would
`require us to ignore Anderson’s clear indication to the reader that her ensuing
`discussion of the optimum control strategy applies equally to both parallel and
`series-type vehicles.”
